Nice Write up @ddec
Seems strange that this is not on the TM website:
Located on every TP5 golf ball box’s cover is a QR code that leads to a ball recommendation tool. Answer twelve relevant questions and TaylorMade will suggest the TP5 golf ball that best matches your playing style.
it's what was talked about. So hopefully that comes to fruition because they were very clean on the QR code and the 12 question part. Oh well.I believe it just takes you to this page
It's very basic
I did well with both when I was higher spin, but that changed, and so too did my golf ball type of choice hahaI liked the 2019 TP5, the 2021 just didn't really stand out for me.
I was saying the same thing to my wife.
When their driver distance starts at long do I just not play those balls at all?
I think the write up is great and I really like the technology in them. I like the softer sound which I think most people do but that longer distance would always be nice.
I’m sure it will. That link was just the only thing I found on TM website today. I don’t have a retail box to try. The QR code I have on my box just takes you to the feedback siteit's what was talked about. So hopefully that comes to fruition because they were very clean on the QR code and the 12 question part. Oh well.
Theirs doesn't bother me as much either. Because oriented it does what it's supposed to and when it's off on other shots it's varied enough that my brain can just tell itself that it's random. Which keeps it from being a distraction.Nice!
I surprised myself with how much I enjoyed the PIX clearpath alignment. I'm not one for liking lines on golf balls I feel like it messes with my eyes and I have a lot of trouble lining them up. I didn't run into that with the clearpath alignment. Maybe because it's essentially a larger blank space that I'm setting to my intended line but whatever it is I like it and now that I'm becoming a decent putter watching it roll end over end and disappear into the hole is VERY SATISFYING.
Bonus is TM makes some of the coolest special editions out there so maybe now I jump head-first into that collection obsession in 2024.
@That post did a test earlier in the thread and it was much lower spinning greenside than a couple of others.I did well with both when I was higher spin, but that changed, and so too did my golf ball type of choice haha
I’m curious to see these next to the Bridgestone’s and Callaway’s for greenside action.
I prefer the Pix ball to the Truvis, becuase I like the function of the CP when putting. But I went away from it because I found a ball that was a better fit.Nice!

Tp5 between the two but I don’t know if I really fit into the profile. But if I had to choose.Glad I wasn’t alone. So, if you were going to try one, what would it be?

Good article @ddec!! The TP5X was my gamer prior to moving to the CSX-LS. Interesting to read the changes and may grab a sleeve to see how it compares against the chrome tourTaylorMade has believed that the TP5/TP5x golf ball is the most complete golf ball on the market since its introduction in 2017. The company has traditionally released an updated version of this line every two years, each with some improvements. In 2019, the Speed-Layer system was brought to the masses to boost speed, and in 2021, a new Tour Flight Dimple pattern was added to improve aerodynamics and performance in windy conditions. With three years since the last version, TaylorMade has been working to ensure that the 2024 iteration will be the most significant update yet. Today, the wait is finally over as TaylorMade unveils their newest TP5 and TP5x golf balls.

Its interesting because Rory is also for rolling the ball back and said he would be switching to the model local rule golf ball if it was determined to be the way, moving forward to prepare for majors.Rory is really touting the TP5x said he "picked up 7-8 yards or half a club more in his irons, more ball speed, & soft feel around the greens."
Hits his 8 iron around 175 yards .... another 8 yards on that? Holy Crap!

That’s a tough comparison though isn’t it since truvis (original, not the new TruTrack) was never meant as an alignment aid.I prefer the Pix ball to the Truvis, becuase I like the function of the CP when putting. But I went away from it because I found a ball that was a better fit.
correct it was not. I was never a fan of how truvis looked in the air(which sounds funny I get it). Just a style that for me added very little. With the Pix, at least there was something there that I could use and at the time I liked using it to line up better than Triple Track. I ended up getting away using those types of alignments because I start to second guess myself a lot. Now if I play TT, I do it becuase normally nobody else in my group does.That’s a tough comparison though isn’t it since truvis (original, not the new TruTrack) was never meant as an alignment aid.
Yep it’s over in the BX thread if anyone is interested. Personally, I kinda liked the higher launch but knocked down spin of the 5x on those 50y shots I posted this morning.@That post did a test earlier in the thread and it was much lower spinning greenside than a couple of others.
It was over 1000 rpms lower on 50 y shot if I remember correctly.Yep it’s over in the BX thread if anyone is interested. Personally, I kinda liked the higher launch but knocked down spin of the 5x on those 50y shots I posted this morning.
When it comes to close chips my preference is to land soft, hop, then come to a stop. Instead of backing them up. So the lower spin window was nice.
